THE NAIL OUTLOOK.
A Dismal View From Pittsburg stand
point.

A Dismal View From a Pittsburg Stand
point.
Yesterdays Pittsburg Leader spoke OF
the nail situation in this doleful strain:
The manufacturing of nails has seldom
if ever been any worse than at the present
time, since the close of the nailers' strike
Just a year ago. Since the factories were
started up again, the nail trade has been
little more than one-fourth the output at
the best, than in any former year. Jones
< Laughlin made rather more nails with
their factory of sixty-three machines in the
last year than either ShOenberger d Co. or
Chess, Cook & Co. Each of these have 100
machines, And from the three factories in
the last twelve mouths very little more
than $50, 900 kegs of nails were cut, and
from the outlook now il is safe to predict
that less than 1900 kegs will be cut
from now until the end of the
year. In the two large factories there are,
off aud on, from twenty to forty machines
in operation. The consumption Ofnails in
our home markets has been far ahead of
any former year. Not more than halt q
dozen of our leading wholesale merchants
dispose on an average of more than 1900
kegs q month, while the amount is not so
great during the winter months. The
monthly estimate since July |, last year,
can be put down at 10000 month, max
ing it 120, 900 kegs; but there are now at
least 40, 900 kegs, or stock enough to sup
ply the trade to the end of the year. Less
than $4,000 kegs of the nails made here
were sold in our market, all the others
were mostly disposed ofin the western mar
kets.

Quite a pleasant event occurred last
evening at Turner Hall, on the occasion of
the thirty-fifth anniversary of the Society.
The ladies singing section presented the

one side and of theTurnverein on the other.
Mrs. II. Hoefer, President of the ladies
section, held the flag and in a few words
delivered it to Rev. VIM. Ulfert, who in a
neat and appropriate speech presented it to
Col. Jacob Nunge, President of the Society.
The Colonel responded in a pleasant man
ner, after VIII Oh he delivered the flag over
to flag bearer JOS. Vorel. Rev. Ulfert and
Col. Nunge then made addresses to the
audience, and the latter introduced Col
Jacob Kemple, who made stirring address
on behalf of the ladies. Mr.. John Schenck
gave brief history of the Turner Society,
and he was followed by Mayor Seabright,
who had been called upon.
Then there was more music and the la
dies served an appetizing lunch, the bal
ance Of the evening being spent in very
sociable manner.

YOUTHFUL THIEVES.

Two Boys Arrested for Looting the Base
Ball Buildings.
About o'clock yesterday morning two
boys about II or Is years of age crossed
over from the city to the Island and ma
king their way to the Waters place, on
South Penn street, were soon ensconced in
apple trees, where they put in most of the
morning gathering and eating green fruit.
In the afternoon the kids broke board
from the east fence of the Base Ball Park
and entered the enclosure. After skylark-
ing about for time, they broke into Door
keeper Salada's Office, and gathered up
about peck Of admission and grand stand
tickets, which they packed in box. Then
breaking the lock on the dressing room
door the boys went in there and appropri-
ated two boxes OF tips, some soft drinks"
and two or three other articles. Just about
this time Arch. Zane, the custodian Of the
grounds, surprised and captured the boys,
and locked them up in the lookup on the
grounds. Mr. Zane then sent for Officer
Lukens and the BOYS were taken to the
City Hall.

g. A Little Peculiarly.

There are number of things in "Cold
Shorts" letter in the current issue Of the
Age of Steel which Wheeling people can
peruse with interest and profit. One of
these is given below
There is one popularity in manufac-
turers' methods that clings like parasite,
which it is to all branches. The nail
business is by no means alone distinguish
ed for its adherence to it, and that is
making card and list prices and giving
discounts, allowances, rebates, brides and
what not from them, the offerings of
especial aud trade terms are only incentive
to cut prices and standing stumbling
blocks in the way of fixed steady values.
Besides it is departure from square
business methods. 1t is rule, it is true,
but what good purpose does it serve?
If 10d nails are worth to the manufacturer
$500 per keg, why offer extra induce
ments in the way Of allowances. The
trade have been educated by this to the
extent that they will not buy without OBJ
tanning concessions, and fixed prices cannot
be made nor obtained, 80 long as this pre-
MUM on skullduggery is allowed. The
buyer expects it and he will 60 from one
factory, or its salesman, to another until
he strikes the necessitous, the infirm one,
and gets his order booked at cut rates,
then away goes the card and it don't stop
until it strikes bottom; then the pharisaical
squealing commences. 1t is second nature
of nail man to cut rates and and part of
his creed to be good protector, and with
all this, it is strange how unsuccessful he
is in covering his tracks. Collectively,
they form first-lass latter day Pickwick
club; separately they are the very anti

A WHEELING GIRL

Demsnted In Mind and Deserted by
Her Kin.
The Pittsburgh Leader saysSuperintend-
emit Dean, of the new Anti Cruelty Society,
Saturday visited house Of ill-fame on
Ferry street and assumed control of an in
mate who is simple-minded and who it is
alleged is subjected 10 brutal treatment at
the hands of the male visitors. The girls
name is Lena Kemp and she has been an
inmate of the house for a year or two. She
originally came from Wheeling. Her
father was an old soldier and after his
death she was presumed TO be in the care
of her brothers, Of whom she has quite a
number. They, however, do not appear
to have kept watch over her, for she was
betrayed. When they learned Of her dis
grace they turned her out Of doors and she
then wandered from one place to another
until she reached this city and then drift
ed into the house on Ferry street. Some
months ago her brothers came to this city
and secured papers of some kind whereby il
is supposed they are enabled to draw her
share of the pension granted her father.
They then promised to send for and care
for Lena, but since that time nothing has
been heard from them, and it is now almost
certain that they have no idea OF doing
anything for her, and intend that she
shall hustle for herself, which she is not
old enough to do. As stated, she is of
weak mind, and can easily be induced to
give herself over for any purpose. She
does not want to return to her brothers,
and when it was suggested by Superin-
tendent Dean that she should return to
Wheeling, she grew very much excited,
burst into tears and said
"Oh, washed for them, and worked all
day scrubbing and cleaning, and they beat
me so hard. Oh, please Mr.. Dean, don't
let me 90 back 10 them"
One of her brothers is named Peter
Kemp, and is said to be prosperous bar
Der in Little Washington.

As per challenge in yesterdays issue of
the REGISTER the Panhandle Base Ball
Club, of this city, wish to have 90 at
wrestling the championship of West Vir-
ginia from the Regulars of Morgantown.
If the game is arranged to be played at the
Wheeling base ball park an admission will
be charged to defray the expenses Of the
visiting club, which will amount to quite
a neat sum. The Ranhandles will have
a good team if it can be had in the city,
as only two original members of the
old organization Goudy and Trainer in
tend playing for the championship, the
balance q the members of the team having
refused to play any further games after the
Pill Roller-PanHandle game, on account
of Indifferent playing and rowdyism in
dulged in by an ill-mannered member Of
the nine. The expense of the visiting club
will be quite heavy, ana as our boys will
have to give a guarantee, there Is talk of
starting subscription list among the pa
irons of the game, so in case the attend
ance fall short, the expenses can all be
paid.
